[-- Attachment #1 --] As well as enabling the above logging (I wouldn't bother with the tcp/ip logging if the connection's going to be up 8 days and there are no filters), it may be worth enabling a diagnostic socket (set server) and when it jams, make a connection and do a ``show mem''. This'll show if there are any outstanding packets. A ``show links'' would be interesting too and maybe a ``show physical'' (or ``show modem'' if you're running an older version). Was kinda wondering what the tcp/ip logging was going to be like. Can't even prove that it will fail again. The counter is the output octets (bytes??) counter, the version is the standard one that came with 3.2-RELEASE, I'll enable the diagnostic socket and checking next time.. That's what I get for running a news server on my home machine <GRIN>.
